Multiscale Investigations of Overtopping Erosion in Reinforced Tailings Dam Induced by Mud-Water Mixture Overflow by Meibao Chen, Xiaofei Jing, Xiaohua Liu, Xuewei Huang, Wen Nie

“…To study the feature of overtopping erosion for the reinforced fine-grained tailings dam induced by mud-water mixture overflow, the red mud concentration of overflow, the erosion depths and erosion rate have been consistently detected and recorded by a series of physical model tests. This investigation conclusively showed that the red mud concentration for flooding over the dam slope had a nonlinear trend of first becoming larger, subsequently decreasing with the time going on in the process of tailing dam overtopping; the maximum red mud concentration achieved 19.0%. …”
